The class flowed very well from one topic to the next and it was easy to follow along with so much information overload. Definitely coming back for my next classes (103/104). I even signed up to be a member for some extra practice. 6 stars if I had the option. Thanks guys

What an amazing day. Our host made us feel welcome.... like part of the family ...from the…read morebeginning. Don't need to worry about doing something wrong as they give very clear instructions. Everything went perfect because the hosts are so organized and thorough in their communications. We did the all day sail including a very tasty lunch about which the host consulted with me in advance. You don't need to bring a thing but your personal items as they have beverages, wraps if it gets chilly or anything you might need. Four of the six of us are 80+ and we were able to manage fine maneuvering on, off and around the boat including using the "head". Each experience depends on the tides, wind, currents, weather and other boat traffic, which makes each day unique and they explain about how these relate to the sea life you see and your itinerary. Because we had a beautiful sunny day Mt Rainier was present during much of the cruise giving us spectacular photo ops. I can't recommend Hobbes sailing highly enough....

This review is long overdue. This past spring, deep into the pandemic and feeling depressed because…read morewe had to cancel yet another vacation, we decided to replace Hawaii with a staycation in Tacoma. That's when we found Cruise Hobbes. I never thought we would be able to charter a sailboat with a crew for any length of time, but Cruise Hobbes's rates were extremely reasonable! On the appointed day, we met First Mate Karen and Captain Frank at the dock in Gig Harbor and after a quick briefing we were soon underway. In our correspondence, Karen found out that we had to forgo Hawaii. As soon as we stepped foot on deck, we were given leis, which was such a sweet, thoughtful touch! Before our sail, Karen asked us about any food allergies, requests, etc. Our snacks and lunch were delicious and in keeping with the Hawaiian theme. It was a BEAUTIFUL day for a sail. Plus, Frank and Karen are easy-going and a pleasure to spend time with. I highly, highly recommend chartering a trip with them. The sailboat is extremely comfortable. Everything is taken care of for you and customized to your tastes, and Karen and Frank are fantastic.

Best rafting in the states…read more The guides are the best. They're super knowledgeable, friendly, and safe! They'll keep you safe on the water and make sure you have a good time too. They make these little stops along the river and tell you about the area. Blair the owner is a saint and will make sure your time on the river is the best that is possible. The Guides: James Michael is the best looking man in a wetsuit that ever lived, and will keep you safe. Robin is a motivator and is good with people that are meek or first timers.
